Olesa Municipal Market
A 25-stall indoor market on Plaça de Catalunya in Olesa de Montserrat. Open Monday to Saturday from 8:30am, with evening sessions on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.
Olesa Municipal Market is an indoor food market at Plaça de Catalunya, 3, in Olesa de Montserrat in Barcelona province. Designed by architect Jeroni Martorell i Terrats and inaugurated in 1932, the building is listed in the Inventory of Catalan Architectural Heritage and still serves the town six days a week. The market opens Monday to Saturday from 8:30am to 2pm, with extended afternoon sessions on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday that run until 8:30pm. With 25 stalls under one roof, it is the main fresh food market for the town and one of the municipal markets in Olesa de Montserrat in the Baix Llobregat comarca.
What to buy
The 25 stalls cover the full range of fresh food: fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and bread and bakery goods. It's a practical, well-stocked market for daily shopping rather than a tourist destination, though the 1932 heritage building is worth a look if you're passing through. Cash, contactless and mobile payments are all accepted.
